Senior Pastor of Power City International, Abel Damina has criticised clerics who tell their congregants to give financially to the church in the names of "sowing seed" and "first fruits."
Speaking in a recent episode of the WHOT podcast, Damina claimed that giving doesn't move God.
He argued that instead of giving "first fruits" and "sowing seeds" in church, Christians should focus on expressing their gratitude to God through praise and worship.
"All these sowing of seeds, giving to motivate God and giving to move God, you can't move God.
"It is the movement of God that even allowed you to have what you have today.
"What is 'first fruit'? There's nothing like 'first fruit' money. I know they do it every January but it is wrong.
"In the new testament, first fruit is Jesus. And in the old testament, first fruit pointed to Jesus," he explained.
